Clinton strategist: No ‘rose-colored glasses’ about difficulties uniting country

No one thinks that uniting the U.S. after this tumultuous election season will be easy, a top Hillary Clinton strategist admitted Sunday. 

{mosads}”No one’s here going into this with rose-colored glasses saying it’s going to be easy,” Joel Benenson said on ABC’s “This Week.”

“But I think there’s only one candidate in this race, and that is Hillary Clinton, who’s talking about the need to bring the country together, to be building an economy that works for everyone, not those at the top, and make sure that as a country we create the country we want to be living up to our values, where we do have each other’s backs, not turning our backs on each other.”

Many have questioned if the next president can unite the nation after a bitter general election fight between Republican nominee Donald Trump and Clinton, the Democratic nominee.
